The Immortal Flames were once an elite force created to ensure Ul'dah's victory on the battlefield. Their spirit was legendary and even had songs sung of them being crusaders against the zombies within Sil'dih.

It's Iron Fist kind of day.

Probably my favorite cape hero redesign I've ever made.

Make art that you think is fuckin sick as hell. Make the shit you never thought you could that you always wanted to see. Beat your insecurity to death and fight to become your own favorite artist.

Character Artist Advice: Learn to push add Material Definition. It's important to have variation and separate exposed metal, painted metal, nylon, plastic, cotton, fabric folds, leather, rubber glass, denim, and brass - to elevate the visuals. A zBrush sculpt is not going to carry the whole model.

A Blender 3D test render showing a massive, dark, enclosed, concrete space half-filled with water. There is a bridge of stepping stones across the water leading to stairs at the end of a long, open room. On either side of the stairs there are large glowing shapes in the water that appear to be fish with tall spines protruding from their backs. There is a window at the opposite end that is brightly lit from the dawn sky. Bookshelves line the walls with rolling ladders. Trees are directly in front of the window, and in front of the window is a large desk. Because of the distance between the viewer and the window, the desk is small and barely visible.

A warmly lit image of a large, executive-style red marble desk covered in stacks of paper, books/journals, a single cup and saucer, and an angular metal lamp. The chair behind the desk appears to be floating or levitating, with a glowing light emitting from the engine beneath the bottom of it. Out of focus leaves frame the image and obscure some of the background. In the background there is a wall of bookshelves and a long, thin rectangular pool of water. The floor is poured concrete. At the bottom of the image is a logo that reads "The Bastille", and a title that reads "Desk of the Curator".

A concept art character design sheet exploring various hair and costume options. On the left side of the image are eight smaller figures; on the right side is a single larger figure. All figures are the same person: a medium-dark skinned woman with dark brown hair and brown eyes. The large design depicts her with a half close-cropped/shaved head and locs with gold threading or beading. She is wearing a brown and gold gradient two-piece gown with linear gold accents and gold jewelry; the top is cropped at an angle close at her ribs. It is sleeveless with a high, turtle-neck style collar. Gold spikes jut upwards in a semi-circle from the back of the dress/above her shoulders. The skirt is sheer and fluffy, with a thin opaque panel in the front and a wider opaque panel covering her hips and draping in the back of the skirt. It is slightly visible through the sheer fabric. She is holding a retrofuturistic looking gun. On the left, the top row outfits include a red and gold dress with a plunging neckline and a thigh-split skirt, a short brown and yellow cocktail dress, a mid length sheer gold/cream cocktail dress, a two piece outfit with a sheer black top and a low-rise floor length skirt in black and yellow, a crimson officer's uniform with a loose white shirt, a navy officer's uniform with a gold shirt, a two-piece outfit with cream riding pants and a plunging dark red shirt, and a futuristic outfit with a red/yellow reflective trenchcoat and dark leather pants with no shirt.

A greyscale rough sketch of a futuristic, upscale restaurant interior. The left side shows an open archway leading to a balcony, and an open space for seating, with partially obscured hexagonal tables and round chairs. On the right side closest to the viewer is a large fishtank serving as a bar with bar seating. On the other side of the bar is an open kitchen with a range and range hood. A large spiraling staircase opens into the space immediately after the kitchen, separated by a half-wall. There are additional arched openings beside the staircase that lead out into additional space. The image is in exaggerated 2 point perspective.

Slammed @ work/school so not a lot to share rn, but I repost a lot of other artists bc burying myself under a pile of art feeds my will to live. ๐Ÿ’€๐Ÿ’•

I love this brush. It's totally crazy and can make so many different kinds of weird marks. Very photocopy - zine - halftone - messy ...

Quick social media headsup from the olden days: do not subscribe to any blocklists of which you do not -absolutely- know and trust the creator. A lot of trolls will make genuine looking blocklists, and then slowly start adding good people to them. Always verify account names & handles!

This is a bad time to be laid off. Most companies won't realistically be hiring until early January, but if you hear of anything please let me know. I just want to make great games that occasionally make people cry ๐Ÿฅฒ

(P.S. I am really good at my job, and the stuff I make is award winning!!)

So, bad news. The studio I just joined, Thought Pennies, has run into some major trouble and laid off most of the staff. That includes me! I am laid off again! Truly, very bad luck. I was only there two weeks before stuff went down.

Iโ€™ve had the privilege of nominating voting in TGA for many years but I agree with this whole heartedly. There are many categories I am not equipped to say something meaningful in. I always skip those rather than put just anything down but I do wish we had specialists come in for specific categories

A realistic pencil drawing of a robed woman, surrounded by three vultures and one barn owl grabbing a dead mouse with his beak. 

The robed woman stares at us intimately, with a few bits of branched and a dark background makes the scene a bit ominous but graceful body positioning makes the scene beautiful as well. The artist (me) really likes this kind of imagery.
